Famous quotes containing the word methods:

    The reading public is intellectually adolescent at best, and it is obvious that what is called “significant literature” will only be sold to this public by exactly the same methods as are used to sell it toothpaste, cathartics and automobiles.
    Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)
